Kamala's coconut story has gotten a lot of coverage and literally just made the cover of New York Magazine, by Hal Brown, MSW

 



The New York Magazine cover shows an exhuberant Kamala Harris looking youthful and exuding confidence while sitting on a giant coconut. In the foreground they have Chuck Schumer, AOC, Barak Obama, George Clooney, a sad looking President Biden, Nancy Pelosi, Beyonce, and a leaping Hakeem Jeffries.

I'd like to envision Kamala as a modern day noble and virtuous Queen Guenevere with lots of liberties taken with the actual story told in the musical. She did help King Arthur put together the Knights of the Round Table made up of knights who do not pillage and fight but instead uphold honor and justice.

We can leave out the part about her and Lancelot....
